Detailed description
The REXSTRIP COB is based on Chip-on-Board technology: the chips are mounted directly on the circuit and covered with a continuous layer of phosphor. The resulting line of light is uniform, without the dotting typical of strips with discrete LEDs, even without a diffuser.
Applications
- Narrow recessed profiles in ceilings and partitions.
- Cove lighting and dropped suspended ceilings, seen at close range.
- Shop fitting: under shelves, display cases, shelving runs.
- Lighting of worktops and kitchen furniture.
- Hospitality and residential, for refined indirect lighting.
Specifications and practical consequences
- 480 LEDs per metre: the density is such that the source reads as a continuous line. This is the decisive criterion when the strip is directly visible or placed behind a thin diffuser.
- 180 degree emission angle: the flux is spread over the whole front half-space, without a narrow lobe. In a shallow profile, this avoids light and dark bands projected onto the neighbouring wall.
- Efficacy of 115 lm/W for a flux of up to 1690 lm/m: efficacy remains good despite the chip density, which limits the heat load to be dissipated in the profile.
- Width of 8 or 10 mm: two sizes to fit the grooves of profiles on the market without excessive play.
- Cuttable every 50 mm: a fine cutting pitch, which reduces offcuts on custom lengths and makes adjustment at the end of a run easier.
- CRI above 90: faithful rendering of materials and displayed products, a prerequisite in food or textile retail.
- Protection from IP20 to IP68 depending on the version: from dry interiors to immersion, on the same product base.
- Enhanced antistatic protection: less breakage during assembly, especially when cutting and soldering on site.
- 24 V, stated service life of 50,000 h.
COB is chosen first for its visual result: if the strip is seen directly, there is no equivalent in discrete LEDs. However, plan an aluminium profile able to remove heat along its entire length; otherwise the service life benefit evaporates. Tell us the total length and the type of profile chosen so that we can validate the sizing of the power supply.
